Nike‘s relentless pursuit of innovation knows no bounds, as the brand consistently pushes the limits of what’s possible in the world of footwear and apparel. Every four years, they debut cutting-edge designs specifically engineered to shave precious seconds off athletes’ times in the 100m dash. This dedication to innovation can be the difference between winning and losing on the medal stand, as recent claims made by the “Blueprint” Pack, which debuted in Paris, have already demonstrated.
But for those with a deep affinity for tradition, Nike is also delivering a classic Air Max 1, reimagined with an “Olympic” twist that’s sure to strike gold. A gilded tone adorns the Swoosh logo, while the remainder of Tinker Hatfield’s design absorbs a color palette that perfectly captures the essence of Team USA and host France – dark navy, red, and crisp white. A neutral grey suede quarter panel pays homage to the Air Max 1’s roots, blending seamlessly with the rest of the design.
